Allow users to set a GIF file format for splash icon

[nakulbisht]

Hi, I have stumbled upon your flutter package and truly believe it is the best solution for every splash screen related problem.

Although great, I want to bring your attention to my one simple request and that is, with addition to allowing .png file formats inside Android and iOS, please allow us to add .gif or .mp4 file format for our splash image.

I hope this should be simple, as you already allow fellow developers to add .gif file format splash images for web development.

Thank you for the reply @jonbhanson

So, are the .gif files not supported currently for Android or IOS, as I was unable to find any solution regarding my problem?

[jonbhanson]

Currently .gif files are only supported on web.

Currently .gif files are only supported on web.

Could you please provide information regarding the current status of .gif file support for Android and iOS platforms in your development timeline?

[jonbhanson]

I don't have plans to add .gif support.
